Setting expectations
Being brave is
telling your
boss their
expectations
are unrealistic.
“Marketers who set goals are 376%
more likely to report success than those
who don’t. And 70% of those successful,
goal-setting marketers achieve them.”
- Nathan Ellering
Align Your Goals with the
B2B Marketing Funnel and
The Customer Journey
Awareness
Interest
Consideration
Intent
Evaluation
Purchase
Search for information
Client examines specific product
and reviews
Client shares the research on products
and brands with other stakeholders and
decision makers
Product Demo/Site Visits
Client gets a contact proposal
- negotiation
Transaction is complete. The aftercare
process starts – opportunity of continued
relationship
Approach every international
campaign with the same
passion and dedication as you
do at home.
Branding
Being brave is changing your branding,
but also investing in it without getting
immediate leads.
What do you think of first when
promoting your brand?
Logo, naming system and brand style
guidelinesProducts/Services
Team
Company values
Brands are made of all of the
above, so only promoting one
of them is not enough.
Promoting your style guidelines
helps you become instantly
recognisable
Make sure your images all have the
correct logos, colour schemes and fonts.

Don’t overlap
Promoting your
products tells the
world what you do
Focus on the benefits they will bring
to your customers.

Don’t expect potential customers to
research you.
Promoting your team
members shows the face
behind the brand

value is a combination of
all the things mentioned

Targeting
Being brave is not being self-centred
with your targeting.
How do you set up the targeting of
your online campaigns?
Broad
Very specific
Your targeting should be
broad when it comes to PPC
and narrow when it comes to
social media.
PPC Targeting
One of the first mistakes: PPC
campaigns targeting specific keywords.

If your brand is not worldwide famous,
people won’t search for your name or
your products’ name.

Aim for an average of 60,000 people.
Customer focus
Being brave is promoting the message
your customers want to hear, not the
message you want to tell.
In this very competitive environment,
marketing efforts have to be
diversified connecting the great
product with the right buyer
Understanding
your buyer
profile
Never assume
you know your
ideal customer
